    内容提要：我国是成文法国家，法官审理案件遵循“以事实为依据，以法律为准绳”的原则。除了法律（包括法规和最高人民法院的司法解释等）之外，判例、学说和习惯原则上不能作为裁判案件的依据，知识产权审判也不例外。我国三十多年的知识产权审判实践告诉我们，知识产权纠纷案件非常复杂，不仅涉及到文学艺术、科学技术、商业标志等人类生产生活的各个方面，而且与时代的最新技术密切相关，从而导致审理难度极大。尤其是同种类的知识产权纠纷案件时常出现，在没有判例规则的前提下，不仅对同种类的案件需要重新研判，更是导致同案不同判的结果。我国有必要尝试建立知识产权判例规则，以节约审判资源，缩短审判时间，减少审判差异，避免干扰因素，提高知识产权审判效率。

    关 键 词：知识产权   先前判决   经典判例   判例规则

    Abstract: China is a country with statute laws, and the judges hearing the case follow the principle of “take facts as the basis and the laws as the criterion”. In addition to the laws (including regulations and the Supreme People’s Court’s judicial interpretations, etc.), judicial precedents, doctrines and customaries can’t be used as the basis for judgment in principle, and the judgment of intellectual property is no exception. China’s judicial practice of intellectual property in the past 30 years tells us that intellectual property disputes are very complicated.They not only related to many aspects in human production and life such as literature and art, science and technology, business signs, but are closely related to the latest technology of the times, causing extreme difficulty in hearing the cases. The same kind of intellectual property disputes cases often occur, at the premise of no precedent rule, so not only it leads to the re-judgment of the same kinds of cases, but also it leads to different results in the same kinds of cases. The paper believes that it is necessary to try to establish precedent rules of intellectual property, because it is beneficial to conserve judicial resources, lessen trial time, reduce differences in the trial, avoid interference factors, and improve the efficiency of intellectual property trial.

    Key Words: intellectual property; the previous judgment; classical precedents; precedent rules
